We've been talking a lot about the efficacy of community self-evaluations lately, both internally on the Community Team and out in the open on meta. Lots of ideas were tossed around, but the underlying theme of these discussions has been that site self-evaluations are not useful in their current ...

We all love Beer Stack Exchange, but there is a whole world of people out there who need answers to their questions and don't even know that this site exists. When they arrive from Google, what will their first impression be? Let's try to look at this site through the eyes of someone who's never ...

at the beginning of the passege, we learn that the rio grande is one of the most important rivers in america . can you think of another important landform the eixsts where you live?what makes it so important?

In geometry, a hypocycloid is a special plane curve generated by the trace of a fixed point on a small circle that rolls within a larger circle. It is comparable to the cycloid but instead of the circle rolling along a line, it rolls within a circle.
== Properties ==
If the smaller circle has radius r, and the larger circle has radius R = kr, then the parametric equations for the curve can be given by either:
or:
If k is an integer, then the curve is closed, and has k cusps (i.e., sharp corners, where the curve is not differentiable). Specially for k=2 the curve is a straight line and the circles...

Recently we've been separating the elements of graduation so that beta sites get features of full-fledged communities as they need them. Our design team has been chipping away the backlog of site designs, but they aren't quite ready to release anything for Computer Science—Stack Exchange yet.

This is correct. We were getting a deluge of Chinese-language spam, and it was evolving so we just blocked Chinese characters. At some point in the future we will re-enable Chinese. — jmac ♦30 mins ago

@NormalHuman I don't think it explains the root cause. It is just an information about the fix, that will soon be deployed, from an official of onenote.

....and hence I think it is NAA. Though, trying to look at onenote website and what they say about contacting them about issues(if only my internet could work, I don't know how chat works and browsing don't) :/

@DroidDev Okay, it's a question about Internal Server Error in closed source software. What other answer could there be?

Oh, so the second one needs to grant more rep than the first one. I think I won't do it then. I already made the mistake of offering too much the first time. It did attract answers, but none were complete.

Also, what if the first bounty was already for 500? That's the maximum, so would it be possible to set a second one after the 500 one has expired?

Many sites have a banner on top:
However, when this site graduates, I don't think we should have one. I mean this site is about sexuality, so whatever goes about the banner has to be about the site, which means a big ________ when you visit the site. That instantly means a NSFW warnin...

@KevinBrown I don't know, but I used to have a script for top unregistered users on a site: getting top users via /users method, and filtering by user_type field. Takes a while because one can't filter by that field server-side, and only 100 are returned at once.

When did we start giving unregistered users profile page and reps?
We always have. They can't vote, though, until they register. If they decide to register they will retain their rep.
Even stranger, is that the user seems to have two of them, maybe through two different logins, I don't k...

"no registration required" was emphasized on SO from day 1.

Eventually had to be edited out there, because SO and a few other sites do require registration to post questions now. One can still post answers (and thus acquire rep) anywhere on SE network without registering.
